Astrological principles in Business

Dr. Shanker Adawal (Jyotishaacharya, PHD, MBA)

Corporate astrology is the application of astrological principles to Corporate Houses, firms, industries, institution, organizations etc. Due to planetary forces, certain companies prosper while others fail miserably. In order to implement measures to ensure the company's prosperity, the future prosperity, the future prospects of the company have to be studied in detail. For this purpose, the date of incorporation or commencement of business, the birth details of the Managing Director and one other key person – probably the executive director are essential. It is not possible to discuss in detail about all the corporate astrological principles. The various commodities and companies governed by the various planets and Nakshtra have been mentioned in this article.
